Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

They are long term effects of slave trade being suffered by people in the African region. For example, "Economic incentives for warlords and tribes to engage in the slave trade promoted an atmosphere of lawlessness and violence. Depopulation and a continuing fear of captivity made economic and agricultural development almost impossible throughout much of western Africa."
